Cabfind

What Cabfind does

Cabfind is a UK-based corporate ground transportation platform that provides managed taxi and executive car services through a network of vetted service partners. Established in 2002 in Merseyside and now operating as a subsidiary of CMAC Group UK Limited following its 2018 acquisition from Transdev, Cabfind serves enterprise buyers in aviation, rail, healthcare, corporate, cruise, leisure, and the public sector. It supports both planned advanced bookings and large-scale emergency travel response, with vehicle coverage spanning saloons, multi-passenger vehicles, hackney carriages, wheelchair-accessible vehicles, minibuses, and coaches, delivered 24/7/365 through a control centre in the UK.

The platform is delivered via proprietary technology components including CMAC Booking Portals for online booking management, Homesafe for passenger safety and tracking, First and Last Mile for passenger connectivity, Smartlink for multi-modal transport linking, Drawdown for supply network management, and the CMAC mobile app for booking and management. Service delivery relies on a dedicated account management model backed by an enterprise compliance function that vets suppliers against current UK legislation, with CMAC Group UK Limited holding ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001, and ISO 45001 certifications relevant to enterprise and public-sector procurement.

Revenue is generated under managed-services agreements with corporate and public-sector clients (including rail replacement, NHS-style patient transport, corporate shuttles, event travel, and disruption management for airlines), with global coverage extended through partner supply networks rather than wholly owned operations. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales with dedicated account management, supported by online client and supplier login portals, and pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Lee Wasnidge serves as Managing Director; at the 2018 acquisition Cabfind employed approximately 120 people across two UK sites, and the broader CMAC Group now operates with 150+ staff across the UK and Europe.
